Marry, Date or Dump: Hazel, Augustus, & Isaac from TFiOS

I told you there was going to be lots of The Fault in Our Stars love on the blog this week. I know that I have already done marry date or dump posts featuring boys from John Green books and girls from John Green books. I’ve even done one featuring the author himself. But I wanted to do one that was more specific to TFiOS. I had a hard time trying to think of a cohesive three girls or three boys (the closest I got was Hazel’s Dad, Gus’s Dad, and Patrick the support group leader). Instead of giving you all that crazy conundrum, I thought I’d do my first mixed gender post and give you Hazel, Augustus, and Isaac. Choosing one of them to dump feels impossible to me.

Hazel Grace Lancaster: “I fell in love the way you fall asleep: slowly, and then all at once.”

Interesting. I feel like I need to reread the book and focus on Isaac, because so many people have told me he was their favorite character. I was more focused on Gus and Hazel when I read the book, so I feel like I’m missing out.

I would marry Hazel, date Isaac, and dump Augustus. Hazel is wonderful, intelligent, and dependable. Isaac seems like he could be a lot of fun to hang out with for a while and I don’t think he gets enough credit. While Augustus is very poetic and thoughtful, he might be a bit much for me to handle in a relationship.
